Sealed Community™ Members

It’s no longer a back alley or rundown motel crime. Whether in big city shopping malls or small-town ice cream parlors, traffickers are on the lookout for the vulnerable no matter their age or background. They see their potential victims only as a commodity they can sell and sell and sell again. Sex trafficking is happening in every U.S. city from sea to shining sea and whether you want to believe it or not, your city is no different.

Fortunately, the blueprint exists for a city where every person and every business is aware of the problem and how to recognize and respond to it. That blueprint was created through years of research and experience and the result is Guardian Group’s Sealed City™ initiative.

A city can’t be sealed off from this illicit crime without everyone’s help. We at Guardian Group are here to help you lead the charge to Seal your city. Connect us with your local government officials, law enforcement and businesses.

Together we can and will rid your city of the cowards who prey on the innocent. Learn more on how you can help create a nurturing, encouraging and protected environment for the vulnerable in your community. Begin the work to becoming a Sealed City™ today.

How does a Sealed City™ benefit me?

Eliminating sex trafficking from your city also eliminates associated crimes such as theft, drugs, assault and murder.

The absence of these crimes creates a safer environment for your cities most vulnerable, allowing them to grow confidence and flourish.

A safer city is a tourist-friendly city creating jobs and income to boost local economy.
